Greenhouse gas emissions could reduce drag in the upper atmosphere, leaving more space debris in orbit and making satellites ...

Climate change is already causing all sorts of problems on Earth, but soon it will be making a mess in orbit around the ...

The current state of Earth's climate has no recorded precedent. The consequences of the sheer volume of anthropogenic ...

By the end of the century, a shrinking atmosphere could create a minefield for satellites, like those deployed by SpaceX's ...

Greenhouse gases are eroding the safe carrying capacity for low Earth orbit, a new study concludes. Moreover, the authors ...

Climate change is wreaking havoc on Earth. Soon it will mess up its orbit - Global warming’s effects are even stretching into ...

SpaceX on Sunday night launched a Falcon 9 rocket with 21 Starlink satellites into space from Florida's coast.

Climate change is altering conditions in near-Earth space, which could limit the number of satellites that can reliably ...

The team carried out simulations of how carbon emissions affect the upper atmosphere and orbital dynamics, in order to estimate the "satellite carrying capacity" of low-Earth orbit. These ...

MIT researchers calculated that as global warming caused by burning of coal, oil, gas continues it may reduce the available space for satellites in low Earth orbit by anywhere from one-third to 82 ...
